Chapter 1339: Chapter 1339: Staring
Seeing this, Justin Battleson hurriedly spoke up, "You little rascals better not let your imaginations run wild, your old dad’s fine."
As he spoke, Justin Battleson lifted a finger and pinched Olivia Thompson’s little nose.
Olivia Thompson blinked her eyes and then, breaking into a smile, clung to Justin Battleson.
"But dad is hurt, and that still makes us sad."
"Yeah, we want to stay here with daddy," Grace Thompson also nodded repeatedly beside her.
"Dad, do you want some fruit? I’ll go wash them!" Hank Thompson proudly offered, picking up the fruit that was nearby.
Jack Thompson immediately raised his hand: "I’ll go too, big brother, I’ll join you."
The arrival of the children seemed to make the VIP ward feel a little smaller, cloaking the normally cold and heavy atmosphere of the hospital with a sense of warmth.
Seeing that it was getting late, the children naturally wouldn’t stay overnight in the hospital room, and since Justin Battleson was injured, Charlotte Thompson would frequently come to the hospital to care for him during this period. Hence, the children could only be temporarily entrusted to Stardust Garden.
Originally, Justin Battleson could have been discharged to convalesce at home, but Charlotte Thompson was worried and wouldn’t agree to discharge, no matter what. To avoid making Charlotte worry, Justin Battleson also had to agree to her request to stay a few more days in the hospital for rest.
After settling the matter, Charlotte Thompson took the children to Stardust Garden.
Ever since the children left the hospital, they had been discussing something among themselves. Their voices were not loud, so Charlotte Thompson, who was driving, did not catch any specifics.
Soon the car arrived at Stardust Garden. Charlotte Thompson had called Jasmine Clarkson in advance before coming to Stardust Garden, so Jasmine Clarkson and the butler had been waiting outside for the children’s arrival.
Seeing the children, Jasmine Clarkson naturally broke into a joyful smile. However, she had heard about Justin Battleson’s sudden hospitalization, and so she immediately inquired about the specifics from Charlotte Thompson.
"Grandma, Justin is doing relatively well now. The doctor said he just needs to rest and recover slowly," Charlotte Thompson answered truthfully.
After hearing this, Jasmine Clarkson nodded her head but her expression also turned very serious: "Regardless of whether this incident was an accident or a deliberate act, we must investigate it thoroughly."
If someone really was scheming behind the scenes.
Their target might well be Charlotte Thompson.
With Jasmine Clarkson’s warning in mind, Charlotte Thompson became extra vigilant.
Because she was concerned about Justin Battleson’s condition, after dropping off the children at Stardust Garden, Charlotte Thompson drove back to the hospital.
On the way, Charlotte Thompson received a call from Henry Thompson.
"Charlotte, the online public opinion has been completely suppressed. How is Justin Battleson doing?" Henry Thompson asked warm-heartedly.
"There are no major issues now."
Charlotte Thompson put the Bluetooth earpiece in her ear and answered earnestly, "By the way, big brother, I’m afraid I’ll need to trouble you during this time."
"Is it about Justin Battleson’s situation?" Henry Thompson’s thoughts were meticulous. After hearing Charlotte Thompson’s words, several ideas came to his mind.
"Yes, Justin is now staying in the hospital, but there are some important cooperation documents at the company that he can’t deal with directly."
"But now, the rumor of Justin being injured and hospitalized has leaked somewhat. I’m afraid that Riley Group will have to be entirely handled by the vice president, so I hope you and your company, considering our cooperative relationship with Riley Group, could help keep an eye on the company for Justin."
